For around 25 years my business was about 200 miles from my home. Many, 
many trips between those two places.  I always got way better mileage 
going home than going to work.  I did some research. Testing, if you 
will.  The gasoline I bought at home would not get near the mileage as 
the gasoline I was buying where I worked.  I started tankering some 
gasoline home.  Then I got the good mileage both ways.  I also quit 
buying gasoline from my local tankwagon man.:-) In this case, the 
uphill, downhill, had nothing to do with it.
